Blanche’s patience was clearly slowly wearing thin by Abbie’s attitude, “Miss Burne, don’t you think you’re being unreasonable?”
“I’m being unreasonable? Then don’t you think you’re being too insatiable!?”
Why would you want Kent’s heart when you’re already by his side!
Kent belonged to himself and no one could take that away from her.
Blanche shrugged and spread her hands helplessly, “Whatever you think, you won’t take it to heart no matter what I say anyway, in that case, there’s nothing more I can say.”
“What do you mean by that?” Abbie looked at her, her face unhappy.
Blanche pointed in the direction of the door, “Take care, no goodbye!”
“You!”
Abbie nearly bit her tongue, “Blanche, you’re doing this to me, aren’t you afraid I’ll deal with you?”
“Haven’t you already dealt with it? Now you’re saying this, do you think I’ll forget what you’ve done?”
“Heh!” Abbie was still sneering, “Blanche, if you refuse me today, you’ll have to prepare yourself well for what you’ll have to face next!”
She could guarantee that she would never let her down.
Wasn’t she just thinking of staying with Kent so that he could one day look at her? Dream on!
Blanche didn’t care what she had in mind, she just hooked her lips and smiled, “I’ll see, but …… Miss Burne, it’s time for you to leave before I call up the neighborhood security and you’re the one who’ll be embarrassed. ”
“Don’t threaten me! I was prepared for anything to come to you today.”She looked at her conspiratorially, a cold glint in the bottom of her eyes.
Blanche didn’t reply and Abbie eventually stomped off immediately, with no intention of giving her any chance to retract her thoughts.
She had come all this way to find out if she was going to leave so easily, and it was clear that the person in front of her was a lot harder to deal with than she had thought.
The door slammed with a loud bang and Blanche woke up as if from a dream.
For days on end, there was a late night knock on Blanche’s door, and eventually notes started to be slipped in, until it eventually turned into dog’s blood being thrown on her doorstep ……
The landlord, who had been scared for some time, grabbed Blanche’s hand and said, “Miss Rodriguez, what kind of people are you messing with?” “If you do this, not only will you be unsettled, but our building will be unsettled.”
“I’m sorry ……”
Blanche admitted it and slowly spoke under the landlord’s expectant gaze, “I’ll move out tomorrow, and the cleaning costs will be on my head.”
“That …… is what you said, I didn’t say anything.” The landlord immediately shrugged off all responsibility as if it was her own intention.
Blanche had to nod and say, “I know all that, it’s not your fault.”
She had brought this on herself, so she had to admit it, but she would have to stay in the hotel until she found a new place.
After some discussion with the landlord, he finally relented and let her keep her things in the flat for a few days, and she couldn’t come back until she moved out.
Blanche felt so frustrated that she couldn’t go back to her home, but on the other hand, she also felt that Abbie was being childish!
“Blanche?”
The man suddenly spoke, pulling her thoughts back.
Blanche’s eyelashes fluttered and she looked up at the man in front of her, “Sir Lewis?”
Kent gave her a quizzical look and couldn’t help but say, “It’s closing time and you’re not going back yet?”
“Huh?” She froze for a moment and quickly nodded immediately, “Yes, yes, yes, look I’ve lost track of time reading a report.”
Blanche got up quickly and smiled sardonically at him, “Well then sir Lewis, I’ll be going back, you take care.”
Kent pulled her back in time to leave, a little puzzled, “Is there something you’re not telling me?”
“No.” She denied it immediately, but the look of weakness was more than obvious to Kent’s eyes.
“Blanche! Tell me the truth, what’s going on?”
“Nothing really.” She smiled sarcastically, the emotions in her eyes all but hidden, “Sir Lewis, I remembered I have to go home first, so I’ll leave without you.”
With that, she grabbed her bag and was about to leave.
Kent’s hand was surprisingly strong too, and had no intention whatsoever of releasing her halfway.
“Blanche, if you don’t make it clear to me today, there’s nothing you can say that’s going to get you out of here!”
“Kent!” said Blanche, a little exasperated.
The latter had a look of indifference on his face, as if he had taken her tantrum all in his stride.
Blanche gritted her teeth, “What the hell are you trying to do, you!”
“Tell me, what’s going on?”
This wasn’t like her in days gone by.
“It’s none of your business.” She looked away, unwilling to lie again, but not about to tell him either.
Kent was furious, but the woman in front of him was stubborn, and after a half-hearted standoff, he had to let it go, “Fine, I won’t press you, but I’m your boss anyway, so if you’re unhappy you can always come to me and tell me exactly what’s going on.”
“That’s something only friends do.” She whispered.
And they weren’t friends.
Kent’s gloom rose, “Blanche, do you have any regard for me anymore, what did you promise me? Have you forgotten so soon?”
“I ……”
Blanche was speechless for a moment, her lips twitching slightly with a dark sigh, “Okay, I promise you I won’t joke about my safety, but this has nothing to do with you and you don’t need to know, so can you please let me go?”
Kent was only acting as a superior, not a friend, and even if he wanted to say something he had to nod his head in agreement after all.
Blanche let out a long breath and hurried away, fearing that he might see what was going on.
Kent followed her lead and drove right out of the office door until she got in her car, not in the direction of her house ……
Where was she going?
Kent didn’t have time to think about it and quickly picked up his car and went straight after him.
Inside the hotel
Kent followed Blanche all the way into the hotel, checked and realised that this woman had been staying there for ten days, asked for the room number and without hesitation pressed the lift straight up ……
Blanche was returning to the hotel when the doorbell rang before she had time to change her clothes.
Perhaps it was because of Abbie that she subconsciously glanced at the cat’s eye.
Kent’s familiar face was outside the door, and he looked anxious.
Immediately afterwards, her heart couldn’t help but sink to the bottom instantly ……
How did he know about this place!
